Though Nairobi is among the five regions where entry or exit movement has been restricted, the examiners had travel passes, which were given to them by the deputy county commissioners. This was one of the conditions given by TSC and the ministry of education to enhance easy movement of the professional to the marking centres.
The examiners who would take part in the marking exercise were to team up based on their destinations and departure days, and book a common bus to Nairobi.
The marking exercise is already on, with most centers having completed coordination of marking schemes and marking of dummies. Centres which have not begun live marking are expected to begin tomorrow or on Monday, upon completion of their dummies. NEXT
